Does anyone know if it's possible to import pictures in .pdf format into iPhoto? Every time I try, iPhoto just quits. Even if I try to change the file extension to .jpg, the same result happens.
If there is only a photo in the pdf file the start to print the file and in the Print window select the PDF button. Then select Save PDF to iPhoto. That will create a 200 dpi jpg file of that pdf page and import it to iPhoto. If there are multiple photos on multiple pages each page will be converted and imported.

If you want a 300 dpi jpg file of the photos then download and place this Automator workflow into the HD/Library/PDF Services folder: +*Save PDF to iPhoto 300 DPI.workflow*+. You can download it from
Toad's Cellar.
